O’Donnell clan bids Julia fond farewell

A tiny village came to a standstill yesterday to say a loving farewell to a woman who helped put it on the map.

Daniel O’Donnell may be a global superstar but he gladly admitted he would have been nothing without mother Julia.

Hundreds of mourners turned up for the funeral of the 94-year-old who lived for her children, grand-children and great-grandchildren.
